Congestion making sleep difficult for you?
Interested in a practical and ultra-cheap wear-around-the-house fashion statement during flu season?
Is there no one else home to witness you wearing a q-tip in your nose?
I’ve been doing this for most of my life whenever I get a head cold, ever since I made arts & crafts with q-tips and discovered how well they bend. Only the plastic-stick ones are efficient for this; the sticks that are made of paper break and will not work.
Bend q-tip evenly in center. Put one tip in each nostril. Wait a few minutes. Opens your nasal passages right up. Cotton absorbent tip helps with drip, if that’s your thing. Cheaper than those ‘breathe right’ strips they sell at the pharmacy.
Sexy, right? This is how I’ve been breathing for the past 48 hours.
Come on, we’ve all done something like this right? This sort of thing really is an avenue of fashion… in Japan.
